Hi Abby
I'm in the second year of my PhD working with Grace Davie and would be interested in presenting. Do you still have a place left? What would be required in terms of the presentation? Is it presenting an overview of my work and then getting feedback and ideas? Or is it presenting a paper?
Thanks

Hi everyone
I just posted this to the main Socrel list but wanted to say on your postgrad list that I really hope to see some of you at this event and would be happy to discuss the possibilities of you presenting a session in the afternoon.
We have two slots left, so let me know if you're interested and I can give you more info. It's a great opportunity to discuss your work in progress with a group of helpful, sympathetic people! As you'll see, there are already some really interesting presentations, so it's shaping up to be a great day.
Hope all is well.
Best wishes
Abby
